Yuck!!!<\/p>\n<p>I went to the transmitter site with Larry in the afternoon and later went shopping.  The shelves were pretty empty.  With the threat from Hurricane Tomas, no shipments were coming in.  Even the fruit vendor was closed.  One of the days when I was at the Warehouse Supermarket, I saw some lunch meat with a face on it.  I did take a picture, but didn&#8217;t buy any!
